(...) A bunch of bits and pieces, but no whole sets. I have a Coko castle that looks like an ice cream parlor. Does that count? Dave! (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) A clone zealot, are you? Do you have the Tyco castles from the 80's? (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) history on your site -great thought and creativity! Changing the topic a little, is there an FAQ anywhere on how to take decent photos of mini-figs (as on Anthony's pages)? I'd love to do something similar with my own figs some day.... -Hendo (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
(...) Yeah, from what I've heard, they're just about as awful as they could be. The only mitigating factor might be merchandising rights; what company owns the minifig licensing? If it's not Playmates, then I can see why Intelli-Blox can't make (...) (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
(...) Well, that is a good point. It is pretty sad when one set of Intellibox or whatever for $30.00 has more bricks than the $189.00 combined Harry Potter universe on S@H. My favorite thing about Lego is the minifigs, and those sculpted (...) (23 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
(...) I'm not so sure. The Prancing Pony set seems to include more actual bricks than all the Potter sets combined. When was the last time LEGO released an actual structure made of actual bricks, rather than a handful of 1x2x5's, or the equivalent? (...) (23 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

A ute is more like a station wagon with the back seat & trunk removed, and replaced with an open area for carrying stuff. Imagine (...)

I believe Tolkien conceived of caverns under the tower of Isengard, remember when Gandalf instructed Treebeard to let in water to fill up all the caves and caverns underneath the tower so Saruman could not escape?

  Re: Not Cricket (was Re: "Centuries old piece of paper" still pretty darn good
 
(...) BWAAAA! I can't disagree there. I did see some people playing cricket here in NJ down by the Raritan, which was a pretty odd spectacle; however, most of them were Indian, Bangladeshi, and/or Pakistani, and cricket *is* of course the consummate (...)
